I noticed a discrepancy between Beequiet manual which says that one should connect A3 and B3 of 300b tubes to the volume control and the Beequiet manual which connects the wires to A2 and B2.  I am assuming the Beequiet manual is wrong (I followed it and my resistance measurements for terminals 2 and 17 are all wrong (below 100k).  Before rewiring I just wanted to make sure that the Bequiet manual is correct.  Thanks.

There was an error in the original BeePre manual (my error actually) where I had the socket numbers flipped around.

Essentially, the wires leaving the level controls in the stock BeePre go to the correct tube socket pins, and there is no reason to remove their connections to the 4 pin socket (the correct pin is pin 3, the BeeQuiet manual still contains the error).
